description The complexities of acute and critical care cardiovascular management demand specialty trained and experienced nurses to ensure quality patient outcomes. An ongoing nurse labor shortage threatens to destabilize the healthcare system and presents a twofold challenge: a decreasing supply of registered nurses and increasing demand for nursing services. This article describes the numerous forces driving the current nursing shortage as well as the impact of the coronavirus-19 pandemic on nurse job satisfaction and turnover. We present a reinvented model of nursing care as a framework for healthcare organizations to address nurse staffing challenges.
